Priyanka Chopra has more than one thing to celebrate. The actress is already on cloud 9 courtesy her wedding to Nick Jonas and now, on the work front, she has bagged a position on the Most Powerful Women in Entertainment 2018 list. The actress, who wrapped up Quantico this year, was a part of A Kid Like Jake and filmed The Sky is Pink, rubs shoulders with international producer Shonda Rhimes, Beyoncé and Taylor Swift.

The actress is placed on the 94th place on the list of The World's 100 Most Powerful Women. She is the 16th most powerful woman in the Media and Entertainment stream. This isn’t the first time she has found a spot on the list. Priyanka was a part of this list last year as well. She occupied the 97th spot back then.

Celebrating the achievement, Priyanka took to Instagram and shared, “Thank you @forbes! Honoured to be a part of such an exclusive and illustrious list of #PowerWomen in the world for the second time.. It's a reminder to stay hungry, keep pushing the status quo and continuing to do what I love. And on that note...#backtowork #ForbesTop100MostPowerfulWomen."

Others on the list include Oprah Winfrey, NBC’s Bonnie Hammer, Donna Langley of Universal Pictures, Anna Wintour from Conde Nast, Katharine Viner of the Guardian and Serena Williams to name a few.

This is not the only Forbes list Priyanka has featured recently on. The actress recently found a place in the Forbes India highest earning celebrity list as well. She ranked No 49 with Rs 18 crore as earnings in 2018.

On the personal front, Priyanka is in a happy place. She recently tied the knot with her fiancé Nick Jonas. The couple got married in an Indian and Christian wedding ceremony on December 2 and 3 at Jodhpur’s Umaid Bhavan Palace. Congratulations Priyanka!
